But when she’s out, it’s amazing. A number of years ago we flew out of Sea-Tac on a morning flight and it was a clear morning at sunrise. The pilot took advantage of it and flew fairly close to Ranier, just about level with the peak. It was amazing, a real treat.
With the double peaks she is easily identified from the air. Not all are. Many many years ago when Mt St. Helens was acting up on a business trip to Portland our pilot was granted permission to do a little jog so both sides could see the mountain. When leaving we ask around the airport which mountain we could see was Mt. St. Helens. Nobody knew. About a week later I bet everyone else knew!
